The 1924 campaign of 1924 Democratic
Party nominee John W. Davis is one of the most obscure of the
twentieth century. Davis was defeated in a landslide by President
Calvin Coolidge who had taken office upon the death of the popular
Warren G. Harding.

Relatively few promotional items were made to support the candidacy
of Mr. Davis, and of those, hardly any were saved. Consequently,
such items are very hard to obtain by collectors of political
campaign memorabilia.

This virtual museum has been put together to show historians
and collectors the materials produced for the Davis campaign.
Most of the pictures are from the collections of private collectors.
Some have been electronically produced based upon the historical
record. If any of these are in error we would welcome corrections
or accurate photos.

Do you know
of any items we have not listed?

If you
have a Davis campaign item not pictured here, we would be happy
to add a picture of it to the museum if you could provide a photo.
Also, we are eager to buy any Davis items missing from our collection.
